Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I've been telling my dreams to the scarecrow

About the places that I'd like to see

I say "Friend do you think I'll ever get there?"

Aw, but he just stands there smiling back at m e

So I confess my sins to the preacher

About the love I've been praying to find

Is there a brown eyed boy in my futur e

And he says, "Girl, you've got nothing but tim e"

Chorus

But how do you wait for heaven

And who has that much time

And how do you keep your feet on the gr ound

When you know that you were born , you were born to fly

My daddy is grounded like the oak tr ee

My momma she is steady as the su n

Oh, you know I love my folks, but I keep staring down the roa d

Just looking for my one chance to run

Yeah, 'cause I will soar away like t he blackbird

I will blow in the wind like a s eed

I will plant my heart in the garden of my dreams

And I will grow up where I'll wander wild and free

Chorus

But how do you wait for heaven

And who has that much time

And how do you keep your feet on the gr ound

When you know that you were born , you were born to fly

You were born, yeah , you were born to fl y

Instrumental verse

Chorus

But how do you wait for heaven

And who has that much time

And how do you keep your feet on the gr ound

When you know that you were born , you were born to fly
